I'm happy to run tests.  I wouldn't be able to do compiles or such 
unless I am given fairly detailed instructions.  I am very green with 
Linux.

BTW, there are parts of the rPi CPU that are not documented.  The 
graphic core is proprietary.

I'm curious about the task though.  What sort of signal generation are 
you talking about?  What would be the platform for data acquisition? 
The CPUs themselves don't typically have inputs for that although I 
believe the BBB CPU has one channel of ADC.  I believe the intended 
purpose is for voltage measurements.  I suppose the actual signal 
acquisition would be a separate effort.
